Bayreuth names Valery Gergiev replacement
mainThe Putin conductor got booed and bad reviews for his disengaged reading of the new Tannhäuser, having spent the previous weeks conducting here, there and everywhere.
Bayreuth has leaked that he won’t be reinvited next year.
They have released the name of the 2020 conductor: Axel Kober of Düsseldorf, a dedicated Wagnerian who made his first Bayreuth appearance five years ago and can be guaranteed to stay on site through the rehearsal period.
